You Inspire Me

Hello everyone, Jen here to share a little tag tutorial with you using this month's amazing Garden Art kit! Everything but the red pearl in the center of the flower is from the kit!

I usually start my projects just kind of lining things up to see where I might like to put them. I really liked the fabric and the stick pin leaves and wanted to use them both on this tag.

I cut a sheet of paper from the She Art pad included in the kit and then unstrung the shipping tag.

I tied the tag with this amazing ribbon from the kit and then used the string from the tag to tie a bow. I glued the stick pin and the fabric leaf to the red flower and then added a little black flower and a pearl in the center.

I stamped one of the sentiments from the Flutter By stamp set included in the kit on the bottom of the tag. I didn't have enough room to fit the whole sentiment and so I masked the "me" at the end and put it below. I'm a little bit embarrassed to show you my dirty foam but it is a great tip I was given a long time ago to stamp using a cushion of some type underneath the paper. Gives a crisp impression every time!

I hope you enjoy this tag today - one of the dozens of projects you can make with all of these wonderful goodies in this month's kit!
